Product Info
When it comes to deep snow and big mountain terrain, few sliders offer better float and lightweight playfulness than the updated Black Crows Nocta Skis. Virtually unsinkable, these 122 mm waisted pow sticks are built upon a fully rockered profile that allows for effortless turn initiation in the deep stuff. Round that out with an extended sidecut, updated lightweight core and moderate flex throughout the entirety of the ski and you get a pow blaster that is extremely maneuverable and stable at high speeds. If you're hungry for powder, opt for the burly yet featherweight Black Crows Nocta Skis and you'll have yourself a true big mountain weapon that's fit to surf the deepest mountain swells.
Product Details

Moderate Flex Along the Whole Ski – High performance and tolerant.
Sidecut
Extended Sidecut – A big turning radius = stability at high speed.
Core
Paulownia / Poplar / Paulownia
Laminates
Triaxial & Biaxial Fiberglass

ABS Sidewalls – Durability and shock absorption across all snow and terrain.
Semi Cap – Durable construction that retains the edge power of sidewall construction while limiting chipping of the topsheet at the tip and tail of the ski.

Printed Base – Stone ground 34 times for a smooth, fast ride.
Edges
Fat Edges – These thick freeride edges are denser, stronger and more resistant than conventional edges.

Big Mountain, Powder

Terrain
Big Mountain Big mountain skis are designed for charging big lines with high speeds and big airs. These skis varry in width from wide, powder-oriented skis for skiing Alaska spines to narrower, mixed condition skis for ripping the beat up headwall at your local mountain. Skis in this category tend to be on the stiffer side, often with more rocker in the tip and less in the tail. Powder These skis are for the deep days. If you like to find powder stashes at your local resort, go on backcountry missions for the freshest of fresh or heli ski trips to BC, powder skis are what you need to stay afloat. Skis in the powder category are wide and most often have some form of rocker or early rise plus a relatively soft flex. Many powder skis today are versatile enough to handle mixed conditions and harder snow.

Ability Level
Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.

Rocker Type:
Rocker

Rocker Type
Rocker Rocker (also called reverse-camber) is just as it sounds – camber turned upside down. Rocker skis have a side profile with a smooth downward curvature and a contact point at the middle of the ski. Rocker skis excel in deep powder. This profile provides the skis with less tip and tail hang up to prevent from catching edges and allows the skis to initiate turns extremely quickly. This profile doesn’t perform as well in icy conditions or on harder snow but if you spend lots of time in deep, untracked snow and like a more playful ski, Rocker is a great choice.

Full Twin Tip

Tail Type
Full Twin Tip Desinged to allow you to ski backwards, full twin tips are found primarily on park & pipe skis and freestyle powder skis. More and more, we are seeing twin tips on all-mountain skis of all abilities, as it makes it a little easier to get around, and for the most part does not inhibit forward skiing.
